Property Description

Strike it rich with a whole lot less effort! Prospectors once flocked to Alder Gulch for gold — now you can claim your own piece of Virginia City history for a whole lot less effort. This 1.3-acre parcel sits in Montana's most storied ghost town, where the Wild West isn't just a memory — it's your backyard. Accessed by an unmaintained two-track dirt street, the lots offer a quiet, off-the-grid retreat with sweeping views of the surrounding hills and ranges. Pitch a tent and camp beneath some of the darkest, most star-filled skies in the country — camping is welcome for stays of up to two weeks at a time. Step out your tent and into a year-round playground. Cast a line on the blue-ribbon Madison River, renowned for its trophy brown and rainbow trout, or head to the 4,800-acre Ennis Lake to fish, boat, or raft the Bear Trap Canyon. Hunt in District 320 and explore the 3.32-million-acre Beaverhead-Deerlodge National Forest, home to elk, mule deer, bighorn sheep, mountain goats, and more. Hike the surrounding ridgelines, soak in the mineral waters of Norris Hot Springs, tour Lewis and Clark Caverns, or take an easy day trip to Yellowstone National Park, just 125 miles away. In winter, world-class skiing awaits at nearby Big Sky and Bridger Bowl. Sweeping mountain views, endless recreation, and a jaw-dropping price mean the real treasure here isn't underground. It's the land itself.
